Birds and bees book?

My 7 year old has asked how a baby gets in a mummy's tummy, so I'm looking for a good book to supplement that conversation.

Can anyone recommend a good book for a child of that age?

Thank you!

The usbourne books are always great.

Amazing You by Gail Saltz (might be a bit young but a good starting point if you haven’t discussed this before).

Where Willy Went
Is that the mad one about sperm? I seem to vaguely remember hearing about this book.

Osbourne book for sure it’s great but I think she’s still too young for that. The best way with my girls was to talk about bodies, periods etc and then back it up with the books. We are so open and honest with each other and that speaks volumes xx

"Mummy's laid an egg" is very good.

"Hair in funny places" is a good one about puberty for that age group, but I can't remember if it explains how babies are made.
